Therapist

I have been practicing as a therapist for 3 years, with over 10 years of experience working in the mental health field. I have worked with both teens and adults facing issues with addiction, neurodivergence, trauma, anxiety, and depression. I strive to create a safe and judgement free zone where you can feel safe to bring your struggles. I am proud to be an ally to the LGBTQIA+ community and welcome my clients to fully be themselves, no matter how you look, who you love, or what you feel.

Outside of the therapy space, I love to spend time outdoors whenever it's nice out. On a rainy day I'm happy to spend the day reading, crocheting, or playing a good video game. My dog can usually be found nearby, either hiking or swimming outside or taking a nap on her bed.

Since therapy is about you, I will offer a little about myself. I was born and raised in rural Appalachia. My dad was a steel worker and a solid human being. He was the coach of my little league baseball team and taught me everything about nature. My mom however, was the one who inspired me to become a therapist. She never went to school for psychology, but she was one of the most naturally astute observers of human behavior I have ever known. She had an innate ability to truly see people, and they were drawn to her because of it. Her greatest gift was her discernment: she knew exactly when someone needed a silent, supportive ear and when they needed a practical problem solver. She always gave people precisely what they were seeking, and watching her transform lives just by listening is what made me want to do the same.

Find the right therapist for you

Headway makes it easy to find support for your mental health — from finding the right provider, to understanding costs, to scheduling with ease.

Factors to Consider When Choosing a Therapist in Tacoma

Searching for therapists in Tacoma starts with finding care that matches what you want to work on and how you prefer to talk through it. Tacoma therapists may support people living with anxiety, depression, grief, relationship challenges, work stress, trauma, or life transitions. As you compare options, look for a therapist whose listed specialties, approach, and experience match your needs. A bio can help you see whether they use approaches like cognitive behavioral therapy, eye movement desensitization and reprocessing, acceptance and commitment therapy, or other forms of counseling in Tacoma.

Tacoma has a range of therapy options across neighborhoods like Hilltop, Proctor, Stadium District, and nearby areas, with virtual care adding more flexibility beyond local office locations. If your schedule varies, a therapist with evening, weekend, or virtual appointments may fit better than one with a fixed in-person schedule. You can also narrow your search by appointment availability, whether a therapist is accepting new clients, session format, and whether a free phone consultation is offered. Reading profiles before booking can give you a clearer sense of communication style, session structure, and what the therapist focuses on in care.

Therapy in Tacoma can be a significant investment without insurance. Using in-network coverage is one of the most reliable ways to reduce session costs and understand what you may pay before care begins. Headway helps you search Tacoma therapists who accept a wide range of insurance plans, view estimated out-of-pocket costs, and book directly with therapists who are accepting new patients. You can browse therapists, review bios, and choose a fit based on your needs, schedule, and plan.

1 Cost may vary based on your location, age, and insurance coverage.
